They guy had him on live but i am going to try F/T if it will work i hope so (less chance of a bite) but if I have to stick to live I will...

    i would wait till night time and dim the lights. grab the feeder with tongs, or whatever you use, by the back and simulate a live rodent. here a post on how to do it exactly.

    With my ball pythons it doesn't matter what time of the day it is, they eat. I usually wait until just before "night time" though.

    I put my f/t in the cage at night time. I don't even wait. They are always gone by morning.
